Thanks for the advice. After looking for something that uses this, I
noticed that o.e.ui.views.tasklist.TaskList implements both
CheckboxCellEditor and ComboBoxCellEditor. (But it's easy to overlook,
since TaskList apparently only exposes this functionality for
user-added items.) So I'll try to figure out how that works.
